trenches and foxholes

Just wondering if there were any mods to the .50 cal so that:

-Gunner is kneeling or prone, so that his silhouette is smaller.
-50cal is emplaced on a foxhole so that the gunner's
silhouette is really small.

Given that, does anyone know if there are:

-Foxholes, which I guess could be a modified "vehicle" that the player
goes into but has the ability to shoot his own gun.
-Trenches, which could be elongated foxholes linked together?

Just wondering cause none of the fixed emplacements in the game is
very realistic.

I wish they'd sort that out too.
IIRC I think the Wargames (WGL) addon for OFP has more realistic .50cals

I've seen some pretty darn good trenches for OFP. They were actual
curvatures in the land--like a steep, inverted, narrow hill. They looked
good. I've seen some pretty good tunnels too (like on the Afghanistan
island).

I haven't seen these good trenches used in a mission, though. I just saw
the website where they were developed.
